Merged X3: Ted Ginn

The pick was Nolan Carrol. Nolan isn't a bad player at all, I know everyone is gonna say "hindsight is 20/20" but I was pissed when we traded away Ginn.. Maybe we should have given up the 4th instead of the 5th instead? (Edds)
 
Ted Ginn is a punk *****. He's only good at KRs because he's the fastest man to run to the sideline.

LMAO at people who honestly believe that Ginn is all of a sudden good. He is a crappy player and he will always be crap. We lost nothing by getting rid of him.

i blasted Ginn as much as anyone but it did not hurt us to keep ginn as a backup wr and returnman. We never got to try Ginn as the other reciever.
 
Ted Ginn IS a KR/PR.. He was a terrible pick at 9 agreed, but he is a KR/PR and we tried to make him into something he isn't, a number 1 WR. O well, the past is the past, nothing we can do to change it, but I did rub it in that beat writer Omar Kellys face..
 
If Ginn was a good football player his good games wouldnt be so few and far between.
He got his fluke game out of the way, he wont do **** the rest of the year.

Horrible Hands, afraid of contact, ****ty route runner. He is a 5th WR at best.
 
A 5th round pick is not useless with guys like Brady going in the 6th. But about Ginn, it was a marriage doomed from the start with where he was taken. That was an absolutely AWFUL selection by an equally awful FO. And yes every now and then Ginn would make that one play that made everyone wet themselves. But for every one of those plays, we had a plethora of inexplicable plays. Dropped balls, dropping into the fetal position when he actually caught one rather than fight for a first down, stepping out of bounds instead of fighting for first downs. His YAC was embarrassing. Too often, the guy played weak, soft, scared football. 20/20 hindsight as always.

He also isn't being forced as a #1 in San Fran, he is the #4 guy and returner . . . would have been ideal as that here in Miami.

I used to hear "oh Bess is more secure on punts" . . . let me tell you, you don't win in today's NFL with that conservative mindset. You need playmakers more than anything on the field and fluke or not, Ginn made plays for the Miami Dolphins.

San Fran is reeping the reward of having an elite returner on their team that doesn't have to be scrutizined by a silly fan base and a regime that was trying to force him as a #1 WR. Yet we are still throwing Bess and Carroll on punts and kicks.

You can't teach "Ginn" speed . . . did u see that angle he ate up today? I miss that.
 
SF should trade him tomorrow. they might be able to get their fifth round pick back.

Horrible hands is BS . . . he dropped balls, but he didn't have horrible hands. He dropped balls mostly when contact was looming, but he didn't have a chronic problem, he actually has decent hands.

He never was gonna be an elite route runner, he was a deep threat . . . Miami was trying for him to be this exclusive #1 WR, he was never going to be that. That is besides the point, he was a return specialist, something Miami doesn't have right now. He was the only speed on the team, something Miami didn't have last year when we got rid of him.

Its not really defendable getting rid of the guy, especialy when you did nothing to replace him last season. Maybe Gates is that guy now, but Dolphins fans had to deal with a pathetically slow offense last year because our fastest guy was Brian Hartline.
 
"Its not defendable getting rid of the guy"? HE SUCKS. We were lucky we got a 5th out of him.

He is not an elite returner, that idea is laughable. He had 2 good return games, in 4 years. Yeah, he's alite alright. Better than Hester.
He will now dissapear as he has always done and the Ginn defenders will crawl back into their holes.

THIS^^^

Wait till he gets hit hard a few times....then its back to running for the sidelines or going to the ground by arm tackles
 
LMAO at all the history revisionists. Personally I never wavered in wanting to keep him since we already overspent to get him, although frustrated by his avoidance of any contact and uselessness as a #1 receiver.

I went on record immediately declaring that receiving a 5th in return for him was ridiculously not worth it, and was drowned out by all the detractors pointing out the value of past #5 picks.

But be that as it may, I moved on from him after publicly here on FH wishing him well since he was a good kid victimized by the biggest CamRan brainfart of em all. It's just disingenuously funny how suddenly, after his magical few minutes in today's 4th period, everyone now asserts they thought the FO was clueless in "giving him away." Hell, I'm one of the few who never wanted the popular, overhyped pick, Brady Quinn either, but through the magic of revisionist history, it seems everyone else also wanted Willis (in my case after Levi Brown was taken early) or Revis.

This is a peculiar site.. I love FH, maybe even because of that :idk:
